Their Relationship to Egyptian Myths and Modern Civilization

Routledge Interpretive Marketing Research

The book examines how a variety of agents - religious institutions, spiritual leaders, marketers and consumers - interact and co-create spiritual meanings in a post-disenchanted society that has been defined a 'supermarket of the soul.' Consumption and Spirituality examines not only religious organizations, but also brands and marketers and the way they infuse their products, services and experiences with spiritual meanings that flow freely in the circuit of culture and can be appropriated by consumers even without purchase acts. From a consumer perspective, the book investigates how spiritual beliefs, practices, and experiences are now embedded into a global consumer culture. Rather than condemning consumption, the chapters in this book highlight consumers' agency and the creative processes through which authentic spiritual meanings are co-created from a variety of sources, local and global, and sacred and profane alike.

This book sheds light on the consumption of spiritual products, services, experiences, and places through state-of-the-art studies by leading and emerging scholars in interpretive consumer research, marketing, sociology, anthropology, cultural, and religious studies. The collection brings together fresh views and scholarship on a cultural tension that is at the centre of the lives of countless individuals living in postmodern societies: the relationship between the material and the spiritual, the sacred and the profane.

Consumption and Spirituality

This is an exploration of the cosmic origins of human beings and the evolutionary laws that govern their development. Husemann applies musical principles as a method of gaining insight into the structure of the human body and the forces that work on it, seeking to use our experience of music to explain the physiological and anatomical relationships in the body and the spiritual influences that determine physical development.

Applies musical principles to gain insight into the structure and development of the human body, and explores the cosmic origins of human beings.

The Harmony of the Human Body

This is the first major study of this enigmatic religious society. By examining the Jehovah's Witnesses' dramatic recent expansion, Andrew Holden reveals the dependency of this quasi-totalitarian movement on the very physical and cultural resources which have brought about the privatization of religion, the erosion of community and the separation of "fact" from supernatural faith. Asking vital questions about the ambivalent relationship of spiritual meaning to modern secular materialism, "Jehova's Witnesses" reconsiders the Witnesses' ascetic faith at once as an inverted form of pseudo-corporate "branding," and as an anti-modern quest for certainty in a hostile world of relativism and risk.

Portrait of a Contemporary Religious Movement

Jehovah's Witnesses

A clear, concise and detailed historical analysis of the eclectic and beautiful visual and material culture of paganism. For more than a thousand years, a diverse range of peoples, from Ireland to India and from the Andes to Australia, have been labelled `Pagan¿ by the Christians who encountered them. Since the twentieth century new groups have emerged ¿ wiccans, druids, neo-shamans and heathens ¿ who openly call themselves Pagans. But who are these Pagans and what do they believe? Which gods and goddesses do they revere? Do they worship nature? Do they practise divination and magic? From sacred plants imbued with supernatural powers to hand-carved amulets that repel evil, and from mischievous spirits of nature to holy mountains, Pagans find divine value in the natural world and spiritual significance in the material universe. Delve within these pages and examine the myriad paintings and sculptures, shrines and ceremonial objects that reveal the stories, symbols and rituals of Paganism.

The Collected Works of Rudolf Steiner

17 lectures, Dornach and Bern, Switzerland March 20 - July 18, 1920 (CW 198)Speaking just months after World War I, Rudolf Steiner urges his audience to wake up to the practical relevance of spiritual knowledge. Serious engagement with contemporary spiritual-scientific concepts can arouse healthy forces of the will, which in turn facilitate constructive action in the surrounding world. Conversely, ideas that are mere remnants of a previous age--echoed in empty phrases and dogmas--serve only to hinder our ability to think with the consciousness demanded by our times, thus destroying any potential for true social initiative. The historical context of these lectures was disastrous, including widespread inflation, hunger, homelessness, and political extremism. Moreover, Steiner states that social conditions will only worsen unless people engage with modern spiritual impulses. Thus, in contrast to the retarding phenomenon of nationalism and the contemporary caricature of democracy, he introduces his future-oriented concept of social threefolding. Steiner discusses manifold challenges, including the decline of the West and the outmoded spiritual impulses of Jesuitism and Freemasonry, as well as a positive path for an ascent of Western societies, true spiritual medicine, the real message of Easter, and the Archangel Michael's victory. Steiner also speaks in detail about the role and structure of the Catholic Church, the historic use of encyclicals, and the doctrine of papal infallibility. This first full translation of this lecture course features an introduction by Dorothy Hinkle-Uhlig, as well as notes and an index. This volume is a translation from German of Heilfaktoren für den sozialen Organismus (GA 198).

Speaking just months after the end of the First World War, Rudolf Steiner urges his audience to awaken to the practical relevance of spiritual knowledge. Serious engagement with contemporary spiritual-scientific concepts can awaken healthy forces of the will, which in turn facilitate constructive action in the outer world.

Healing the Social Organism

"It seemed to me that the turn of the century had to bring a new spiritual light to humankind. It seemed that a climax had been reached in excluding spirit from human thought and activity. A complete change in human evolution seemed an absolute necessity." -- Rudolf SteinerThe first chapter of this volume looks at Rudolf Steiner's years in Weimar, beginning with his work at the Goethe Archives editing Goethe's scientific works. It was in this capacity that Steiner was able to comprehend the great spiritual depth of Goethe's life and work, which became the foundation for his own lifework. This chapter also looks at his social circles and the writing and publication of his works Truth and Knowledge (CW 3) and The Philosophy of Freedom (CW 4). It also highlights his encounter with the work of Friedrich Nietzsche, his visits to the Nietzsche Archives in Naum-burg, and the writing of his book Friedrich Nietzsche: Fighter for Freedom (CW 5). Rudolf Steiner's time in Weimar closed with the creation of his second book on Goethe: Goethe's World View (CW 6), a fruit of his work at the Archives.The second chapter focuses on Rudolf Steiner's time in Berlin, where he worked as editor of a cultural periodical, Magazin für Litteratur and accepted a position as lecturer at the Workers' School. There he was able to grow into his capacity as a teacher and where, although he encountered many ideological challenges, his insight into historical development found wide appreciation among students. The third chapter covers the turn of the century and Rudolf Steiner's inner transition to speaking and writing more openly of his esoteric observations on the evolution of consciousness, the "I," and the training of cognition. His decisive 1899 essay, "Individualism in Philosophy," marked this impulse, followed by invitations to lecture freely before the Theosophical Society, where Rudolf Steiner presented the esoteric nature of Goethe's fairytale and the content of what later became his own books Mystics after Modernism (CW 7) and Christianity as Mystical Fact and the Mysteries of Antiquity (CW 8)."It makes no sense to stop where Goethe stood. Yet we cannot progress unless we absorb Goethe deeply and allow ourselves to be wholly inspired by the impulses he brought into the world. This cannot be achieved as quickly as people today would like this to happen. There is nothing for it: anybody who was careless enough to live at the end of the nineteenth century must bear it." -- Rudolf Steiner (July 18, 1891)Rudolf Steiner, Life and Work, Seven VolumesVol. 1.

In the first full translation of this lecture course, Rudolf Steiner implores his audience to recognize the connections between the material and spiritual worlds. Eclipses of the sun and moon, for example, are 'forces at work in the universe, just like those we study today in the clinic or in the chemistry or physics laboratory'.

Human Questions And Cosmic Answers

Fourteen lectures, Dornach, Mannheim &amp; Breslau, January-March 1922 (CW 210)What are the key differences between the contemporary spiritual path and that of the ancient mysteries?With remarkable clarity and insight, Rudolf Steiner throws new light on the contrasting methods of initiation in the ancient and modern day. The old mysteries worked to transform the physical body - 'the brain on the one hand, and the rest of the organism on the other' - whereas modern initiation 'transforms the element of spirit and soul, strengthening it with regard to the thought aspect on the one hand, and the will aspect on the other...'These wide-ranging lectures additionally cover topics that include: the working of Lucifer and Ahriman in the human being; the relationship of the individual to the Folk Spirit; the development of religious life, particularly with reference to the pagan Old Testament streams; and the role of Imagination, Inspiration and Intuition in modern life. The final lectures examine the impulse of freedom behind the work of Goethe and Schiller, drawing connections with Shakespeare and the French Revolution. An overarching theme is the significance of the transition between cultural epochs and the importance of freeing ourselves from the intellectualism of our age through the spiritual quality of Imaginative consciousness.This new edition features an introduction by Margaret Jonas, notes and an index.

In perhaps the most definitive work on esoteric wisdom ever written, HPB comprehensively surveys the origins of the cosmos and the prehistory of humanity, synthesizing religion and science within the context of the perennial philosophy. Originally published in 1888, The Secret Doctrine continues to be the principal source book for students of Theosophy, not as the final word on the subject, but as a stimulus to encourage the student to ponder its thoughts with a free and questing mind.
